Simply Sing: My Singing App 4+

I downloaded this app because I find singing as a hobby and I saw it in an ad recently. It looked cool enough so I decided to try it out. It placed me as an alto, which I didn’t know because I’m not a song genius really. But I sang a couple of songs and really liked it! It adjusts the song to your range so that you can sing it easily. Which I find convenient. But there are a couple of things I would like updated on the app. I know many people have already stated this, but I think searching up songs would really help people to find certain songs that they want to sing. Also, I know maybe this isn’t the biggest deal but I still wanted to include it. As mentioned earlier, I was an alto based on the app. But there were definitely a lot of low notes that I couldn’t reach on most songs. I know it isn’t their fault but it was just something that caught my eye. Overall though, this is a really nice app for karaoke and I love that it was free to download and there were no subscriptions. (Most of the Simply apps require subscriptions) Anyway, I definitely recommend this app for someone who loves singing or even a beginner. -Izzy 😁

You will be more frustrated than anything else. As if learning to sing wasn’t hard enough already, now you will be battling the app the whole time with incorrect note identification and poor timing between the vocals and the music. If the app was free then okay. But to pay monthly/yearly to have notes not register correctly, leaving you annoyed instead of uplifted from singing is not going to keep people wanting to learn. I bought a year subscription and I literally deleted the app after 2 weeks because the timing and the note identification made it impossible to have any accurate or consistent feedback. I was developing bad habits trying to get notes to register which really defeats the purpose.

Here is more detailed examples:
It says I’m a bass when I’m clearly a tenor. You can adjust the vocal range when singing but it seems to then adjust the notes I sing as if I am a bass. Everything I would sing, that were clearly in key, always registered too high since it thought I was a bass and wouldn’t change. The other thing I didn’t enjoy was i was 90% accurate when I first started the app, and then after 2 weeks of daily practice the best score I could get was like a 77%. I either got worse, which I don’t think, or the app incorrectly registered the notes I sang. When listening back, my 90% scores sounded really bad with terrible tone and my lower 70% scores sounded far better and much more listenable.

Obviously every free app isn’t actually free. Nothing is free in this world. Don’t expect going in to this app that it’s free, it isn’t. This app still needs a lot of developing. Also especially better ads. The ads barely give you any information on the actual app. All I am saying don’t expect this app to be like the ads. The ads barely demonstrate the app well enough. Well I get that their ads giving less descriptions helps sales, but it’s harmful for kids not talking about the price. Some kids I know who downloaded this app like my cousin went it to the game thinking it was free. And once she got in and saw the whole subscription thing she clicked it without thinking. You might say how does that deal with the ads well if you talked more about the money instead of saying it’s free to download talk about the subscriptions. Kids are dumb and will buy it to this if you don’t get more description. But I know this is a company and companies are pretty shady so they are probably doing this whole stuff on purpose. Just if you aren’t a scummy company give more descriptions on the app in your ads. Also you just need more in general the ads only really focus on one thing about everything in the app. This lack of detail just makes you kinda go blind in the app.
